Leadership Opportunities

AT MOORE, OUR GOAL IS TO CREATE INSPIRING ARTISTS, AND INSPIRING LEADERS.

Student Services prepares students for lifelong learning and leadership in the arts by strengthening their leadership skills in and out of the classroom.

Student Services works with other staff, faculty, outside facilitators and local women leaders in the arts to train our student leaders, building their confidence and teach teamwork and follow-through.It is important to help students develop their ability to take risks, effect change and make ethical decisions.
